A Revolution That Changed The Politics Of The World (Part 1)- By Natalie Fazeli

American Revolution of two and a half centuries ago ignited many other revolutions around the globe, notably the French, the Russian, the Cuban, and the Chinese revolutions. Each one of these, and many other revolutions, changed the social, political, economic, and geographical landscapes of the world. One of these revolutions that dates back to 36 years ago has not been in the news recently, but its impacts come to the surface every once in a while. In the last decade we have been noticing interaction between the western governments and this government, with a wide and increasing global impact. The nuclear issue with Iran is the latest of many issues that have occurred since the 1979 revolution, after the hostage crisis, Iran-Contra affair, and the war with Iraq, just to name a few.

Natalie's Educational & Career Goals & Aspirations

The world is currently going through an energy crisis as we use more unsustainable energy sources, such as coal, oil, and gas. This is strongly contributing to global warming as our earth is put into a positive feedback loop of increasing the overall temperature every day. For this reason, we need people studying the climate, analyzing the contributing factors to global warming, and developing efficient and renewable energy resources, like wind and solar powers. My major in college is Environmental Earth Science with a concentration in Climate Change Studies. My goal is to work somewhere in this field of study because I have a strong passion to return our planet to a more healthy state. Also, I want future generations to not have to suffer for our mistakes. After my undergraduate degree I plan to get my master’s/PhD in a more specified area of study and work towards bettering our planet from the catastrophe it is facing now.
